I'm a gypsy-anarchist-journalist... if such a three-headed monster can exist.

I grew up into money, safety and not having to face any real consequence. I did everything I was "supposed to do" those first twenty years or so. I was cynical and stoic but I got heaps of "their" education and at least had a good "caution" instilled in me.

When I left home (Philadelphia), I drove 4,000 miles away to Alaska and got reeducated in the ways of the world at large. Seasonal jobs and road trips were a way of life in my 'twenties.' I've held every job in the hospitality/tourism businesses all over the continent and I have cultivated an interesting outlook on humans as a result.

Over the past half-decade, I've really set myself free and have tried to spend as much time out of the United States as possible. I really enjoy backpacking and volunteering and aim to spend 8 months out of the year free from the clutches of the "job" if I'm lucky; I'll work from time to time, it's nice to buy groceries and plane tickets.

Lately, I'm most interesting in learning about farming and music theory and I've found my artists 'voice' so to speak. I like painting, sketching and somehow will begin writing something...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We must explore.

Interests

Alluding back to the gypsy-anarchist-journalist conglomeration... I like movement, innovation and understanding things.... It's kind of strange to put it that way, haha.

When I'm stationary, I want to work on projects relating to animals, permaculture, construction, carpentry or any artistic pursuit.

Whereas I try to travel as much as I can because there is undeniably all the fun that comes with it: hiking, hostels, aimlessness, camping, road-trips, hitchhiking, and anything done in a "Guerilla" way... but especially those friendships that simply occur and fit into the needed machinery of the moment.
